So what does team blue have in store this week after a hot-and-cold Survivor Series? Here are the 5 major talking points for this week's episode:
#1 Will Daniel Bryan finally snap?
The tension between Daniel Bryan and Shane McMahon has gradually increased with each passing week and all of this deserves a rewarding payoff. Stephanie McMahon planted the seeds of a Bryan heel turn at Survivor Series when she coaxed the SmackDown GM into considering turning his back on her brother-in-law and taking over reigns of the blue brand.
Will WWE finally tread uncharted waters by turning the clean-cut babyface on his employer? It would make for an intriguing angle. However, do we really need to see a Bryan vs. McMahon match? Not really!
